Piper Island Cabin

Piper Island Cabin offers an unparalleled remote wilderness experience located on a small, secluded island within Fish Bay. Situated on Baranof Island, this modified A-frame cabin provides a unique sanctuary for those looking to escape the bustle of modern life. Built by local volunteers in 1994, the cabin serves as a rugged basecamp surrounded by the pristine, untouched landscapes of the Alaskan coast, reachable only by boat or floatplane.

The setting is defined by its coastal isolation, sitting at a low elevation of just 12 feet above sea level. The site is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy fishing access and the quiet solitude of the surrounding waters. Because the site is accessible only via a 1.5-hour boat ride or a 20-minute flight from Sitka, visitors must be prepared for self-sufficient travel and changing weather conditions.

This destination is best suited for experienced adventurers and those comfortable with remote, off-the-grid living. While it offers a roof over your head in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, visitors should be prepared to manage their own transportation and supplies, as this is a true backcountry experience away from typical campground amenities.
